Sex Mission
Sex Mission (Seksmisja in Polish) is a 1984 Polish Science Fiction film.
Two scientists, Albert and Maks, are chosen to be cryogenically hibernated as part of a test. However, something goes very wrong and they are left frozen for many more years than they were supposed to. They wake up in a post-apocalyptic underground totalitarian world inhabited entirely by women, and find themselves defending the very fact that they're men. In the future, it seems, all of history has been re-written to only star female heroes, and men have since been done away with entirely. But is everything as it seems, and are men really useless, like the new society claims? Can Albert and Maks turn the world back on the right track?
The ensuing adventure is part sci-fi sex comedy, part harsh criticism on Eastern European Communism. The film is still well-loved in Poland.
